Answer:

216

Step-by-step explanation:

300 -> 100% (Total candies)

___ -> 72% (NOT Blue candies)

___ -> 28% (Blue candies)

Next:

28% = 0.28

300 x 0.28 = 84

84 = Number of candies that are Blue

300 -> 100% (Total candies)

___ -> 72% (NOT Blue candies)

84   -> 28% (Blue candies)

Now:

300 - 84 = 216

300 -> 100% (Total candies)

216 -> 72% (NOT Blue candies)

84 -> 28% (blue candies)

216 equals the number of candies that are NOT Blue
